I think a lot of crashes in fast groups happen because people swoop/bank/lean to avoid something and they lose control or collide w another rider or wheel. Steering seems a more precise way to move around. So if there are 2 ways to turn and one is safer then riders should know about it. I see the steer and lean aspects as being a ratio. ...Someone can hold their arms stiff and swoop to avoid a pothole -- just shove the bars and frame toward the ground -- and maybe crash. If you have more steer in the equation then the bars tilt over less but move more in the headset. And the saddle doesn't move as much.
